Twin Turbo Cam

I recently picked up a LSX B8, as the B15 was sold out and on a unforeseen back order. Nevertheless, im going to upgrade the cam while the engine is out. I am leaning towards BTR TT cam. Any recommendations?

I would go custom. Specifically for your set up.

na.. the blower TT cam or any cam from BTR is good.

They told me the Twin turbo cam but I went with the Stage 3 Turbo cam for more chop. the only thing I noticed is a little surge when on cruise control not noticeable to passengers just me.. SO just keep that in mind w any big grinds.

416 on 93 only 8 psi 707 on a mustang I cant see a twin turbo cam doing to much better but as described its between a stage 1 and 2.. and that a big cam isn't necessary for twins.. Call BTR they always answer usually Brian is in the back and will talk to ya direct to see what your building.

I have the BTR Stage 3 turbo cam. Works well and I'm sure I got about +50hp with it. It is a little harder to tune down low, like less than 1,500rpms. Maybe a little surge down there. I see now they're showing a Stage 2 twin turbo cam in their mix - something to consider.

Yep......think I'm going to look at the stage 2 BTR TT cam. First will call Brian. To much rump here in Cali will draw to much attention that we don't want.

After my friend made 830@15psi and trapped 142 mph on the base agp turbos with a stage 4 N/A cam I don't really think cam choice really makes that big of a difference with this setup
